Invoice block removal due to quantity.

Hi ,
Is there a standard workflow to remove invoice that is blocked due to quantity mismatch.
Or is there any other simple way to do that ?
Regards
Immanuel D

I will assume that your title is correct: it is the invoice block you want to remove and not the invoice itself.
There is a transaction which will remove blocks for which the blocking reason no longer exists. I just can't remember it now, and I don't have access to SAP here, but it is in the SAP menu close to the other LIV transaction. Find the transaction for releasing manually, it should be close to that.

Invoice block removal

Hi,
I have an invoice for 2 materials from 2 different POs. Both material prices are beyond the tolerance limits and hence the invoice got blocked.
Now, we have a workflow in place for the respective managers to approve the invoice to be paid. As these items are from 2 different POs, there are two managers involved.
Is there a way to remove the block, line item wise?
Regards,
Mike

Hi
Please check whether the payment block reason is set as "Not Changable". In that case you can not remove the blcok manually. The block should be released only through workflow. If that is not set then you can remove the block manually using Tcode FB02.
To check the set up please follow the menu path
SPRO->Financial Accounting->AR/AP->Vendor Accounts->Business Transaction->Release for payment
->Define payment block reason for payment release
Normally the reason is set as Not changable only when all the documents to be blocked for approval.This applies for FI invoices.
For MM invlices you have three blocks viz
Price vairance
Quantity variance
Stochostic block
I hope you can remove the block using FB02. Please check

Invoice block message M8 076 Quantity entered qty to be invoiced

Please kindly advise which scenario the message M8 076, Quantity entered greater than quantity still to be invoiced, will be issued. I've tested many cases but can only make M8 081, Quantity invoiced greater than goods receipt quantity, issue.
Thank you very much.

Hi,
Your PO should have GR based IV on for this message to trigger check these both messages
M8 -081 Quantities invoiced greater than goods receipt quantity as ERROR ( maintain GR-based IV in the PO item level )
M8 -087( item without GR ) - Invoice quantity greater than PO quantity as ERROR & save.
Also set up quantity tollerances DW and DQ in trs OMR6. Choose "check limit" for e.g. absolute upper limit and assign amount of zero there.
This will block the invoice for payment
Please check

Invoice blocked due to price

I have a framework po where there are invoiced blocked due to price. The invoices took the total over the po price. PO price was increased, but the payment block did not release when RM08RELEASE was run. Now, when MRBR is run to manually release, these invoices do not show up, yet, on vendor account via FBL1N, they still show "R" block. Can someone explain why this is happening?
Thanks,
Bill

Charlie:
I guess my question is that when the condition that caused the invoice to block, which was price, was corrected, why wasn't the invoice block removed when we ran RM08RELEASE with automatic release processing selected?

MIRO - Invoice Blocking!

Dear Gurus,
I have a condition on PO, which are not part of Inventory cost. Now after GRN, when i post an Invoice for these conditions it blocks the Invoice for Payment due to Quantity since the complete Quantity has been delivered.
Need ur Help!!!

I have Released the Invoice through MRBR. But this invoice should not be blocked with Qty Reason since GRN has been done and it is blocking invoice for those conditions on PO which will not become part of Inventory cost.
Help me what settings should be required for those conditions which will not become part of Inventory cost.

Workflow: invoice blocked due to quantity (BUS2081)

Hi all
First let me mention that I'm not a developer but a FI/CO consultant and new in this forum as well. So please excuse if this posting is in the wrong forum of if the question is stupid.
We want to optimize the process of invoice verification. Therefore I implemented the Workflow WS20000397 which works great.
But this workflow only deals with price-blocked invoices. What about the quantity-blocked ones?
For this topic I found no information at all, only the Workflow WS00400026, but I'm not shure if this is still to be used with newer releases (4.7, Basis release 620).
But anyway I tried to connect WS00400026 to BUS2081 in the function "event type linkages" with the event BLOCKEDQUANT where I entered WS00400026 as the receiver type.
Now I'm not shure if this Workflow and the procedure is correct because a) I could not find any information about this and b) the "linkage activated" will automatic deactivated when posting an invoice.
Could someone give me some hints how to deal with the quantity blocked invoices and workflow?
Thank you and best regards
Wolfgang

Hi Joan
Good question. First I tend to use this mail function, but then I decided to implement the workflow because
a) I was wondering how this works g and it is kind of sexy
b) I needed already a workflow for the Investment Management and wanted to stick on this technique
c) later we want to scan incoming invoices where we also will need to work with Workflows
d) the WF provides some functions like jumping directly to the invoice and order, delete blocking reasons or change the order
e) the WF could later be modified to cover more or other requirements
Of course the receipant of the Workitem also gets an eMail (via Internet) to let him know about an incoming workitem.
The most time I needed to find out how this works. Now it's just a piece of cake (as long as the SAP-standard WF for this is used without any modifications); would take not more than 15 Minutes to set it up again... no joke. But this depends also on the release you're on.
Of course you have to make a good end user documentation (but you have to anyways for the invoice verification) and about two good flow charts. This together with some trainings really needs the time.

Payment Block removed or allow to make the payment after the due date

Hi,
Regarding Payment block, we have created one payment term with block indicator and assigned to some vendors. So each posting system will generate the entry with payment block, once the document crossed the due date (assume that 30days) system wants to allow to make the payment to the vendor without deleting or removing the payment block. Is it possible.
govind

Hello,
For this change, you need to develop a program and need to identify the age of 30 days invoices and remove payment block for those invoices. So 30 days aged invoices can clear.
Logic: go to BSIK and find out ZFBDT of the document and deactivate the ZLSPR (Payment block).
Or
try to find out any functional module or user exit is available while clearing invoices. if available maintain the above logic.

Removing invoice block at line-item level

Hello SAP gurus
I've been asked by a client to create a way to delete invoice blocks at a line item level via workflow. The workflow sends a workitem for each blocked line-item that the invoice has. What I need to do now is create custom code that will delete a single line-item block instead of removing the block at the header level. This header-level block deletion will only occur when all the line item blocks are cleared.
I know there are a few programs that exist for doing this at the header level (BAPI_INCOMINGINVOICE_RELEASE, MRM_INVOICE_RELEASE_UPDATE, running a MRBR BDC, etc.), but so far I haven't found a standard SAP code to make this possible at the line-item level. I am aware that making changes to standard SAP table records is heavily not recommended (if not practically forbidden), but the client is insisting they want this functionality and soon. Is there another way of making this line-item block deletion without resorting to modifying the RSEG/RBKP/RBKP_BLOCKED tables? Thanks a lot for your help.

Hi,
If you want to split the deliveries in to number of nvoices general configuration is in Item category use Billing relevence = K (Delivery-related invoices for partial quantity).
At the time of creating Invoice in VF01 give the delivery number and click the selection list on the right side top.
You can split based on your line items.
Thanks,

Invoice blocked for price variance or quantity variance

Dear friends,
In case if in the PO, either there is a price difference between GR and IR or a quantity difference between GR and IR, then does the invoice posted stays automatically in a "blocked" status??
If not, then can we manually do some configuration to make this possible? The intention is that such invoices(with price variance or quantity variance) should remain in blocked status and should not be picked for payment in F110 run.
Please advise asap.
Rgds,
Kunal Vichare.

Invoice Block due to price variance

Dear Friends,
In invoice verification I have configured invoice block for price variance (PP).
I have mentioned upper limit as 5%.
PO---100
GRN---100
Invoice---120
I have made this as warning message. I want this should not be open for payment before releasing in MRBR. After posting the document in MIRO it shows that invoice is blocked for payment. The payment bock indicator in payment tab in MIRO shows as "R"--Invoice verificatin.
But system allows this document for payment to be done both in f-58 & f-53.
So please tell me how to stop payment to be done before releasing it in MRBR.
Regards
R Panda

Hi

Please check with your FI consultant

MIRO - Blocking reason: order price quantity

Dear all,
In the line item of a imcoming invoice (MIRO), I found the item is blocked due to "order price quantity".
In the F1 document of this field "Blocking reason: order price quantity", the explanation is "Specifies if the invoice item is blocked due to order price quantity variance." However, it's still a little hard for me to understand. Can anyone help me?
Thank you so much.
Christina

Hi
This is due to variance in GRdoc and MIRO value.Please check the value and quantity ordered and received of GRN and MIRO.
You can remove this block via MRBR transaction.
You also can set tolerance for these vatriances, in GRN you can provide the tolerance limit.
Cheers

Payment block in a vendor without invoice block

Hi,
We have a peculiar requirement.
Client is requesting us to block a particular vendor for payment however invoicing needs to remain open.
I presume we can do this using two methods:-
1.) Payment block in vendor master
Limitation 1 - Let us say that the block indicator is "A" which we have set in the vendor master record and in the configutation of the Block Indicator we Do not check the box of Change in Payment proposal and Check the box of Manual Payment block.
This will block the invoice for payment using F110 and will also not allow change of block in the proposal.
However this will not prevent payment block using F-53 (manual payments)
2.) Manually insert Payment block in the individual invoice posting
Limitation - End user can remove the payment block and then process the invoice.
3.) Default Payment block in the payment term that is in the vendor master record
Limitation - End user can remove the payment block and then process the invoice.
Can anyone please suggest me a method to achieve this.
Thanks,
Nitish

Hi
Invoice will go for a block only when the quantity and/or price at the time of Invoice goes beyond the Purchase order quantity and price. This is delpendent upon the tolerance limit you define in the customization for LIV.
If the quanity and/or price is less than that system only issues a warning message.
If you are not expecting any further delivery after say 50 (out of 100 quantity) you need to manually close the PO by setting the delivery completed indicator in Delivery tab of item detail of PO.

Invoice Block problem in MIRO

Hi Friends,
I am facing a issue. Can some one help to overcome this issue please
1. We have created PO with item value Rs 100 and GR is not done yet.
2. Then we created Invoice for value Rs 20. Invoice got blocked due to Quantity (because GR is not done)
3. Now,I am creating subsequent debit for the same PO for the remaining value of Rs 80. But this subsequent document is not getting blocked . According to me this subsequent document should also get blocked. Can some one help me why this problem. Is it a standard SAP functionality that subsequent document will not get blocked?
Deva

Please have a look for details

Subsequent Debits/Credits are used in cases where the quantity is in the original invoice is to remain the same. For eg.
PO 10 - $10
Gr 10 - $10
LIV 10 - $11 (Logistics Invoice Verification)
The vendor invoice is more than that in the Purchase Order. In order to correct, the Vendor may send in another invoice for
the Increased amount or a credit memo for the increased amount.
If you approve of the price increase, post the subsequent invoice received as a Subsequent Debit/Credit Invoice.
If it is a credit memo that has been received, then post the credit memo as Subsequent Debit/Credit.
This would retain the quantity but reduce the amount.
Subsequent Debit/Credit is for the case when the credit is not for the full amount eg. if the Vendor decided to credit
only the $1 overcharged.
Credit memo is for the credit of the full amount and value.

Posting block removal in the payment proposal editing

Hello FI experts,
I have a small query, and I am not able to make myself sure on it. There are many ways in which payment can be blocked in the payment proposal run for invoices , for , e.g., invoice verification block(R), master record block(M), workflow block(W), line item level block(A).
My query is that in standard , what all are the possible blocks that can be removed while doing the editing payment proposal ? Is it the only line item level block or others as well?
Please help.

Hi
As per analysis no way for at time remove the payment black..
But payment black data stored data REGUP table. So you need help for technical team..
Specifies why a document is blocked for payment.
The following payment blocks exist:
Manual payment block
If you manually select a payment block from the list field to block an invoice for payment, the payment block field in the header of the invoice document is marked with the appropriate indicator.
Blocked due to differences
If invoices are to be blocked automatically due to differences in the invoice items, the system enters the payment block R in the vendor line of the Accounting document. The field in the header of the invoice document remains empty.
Random payment block
Invoices that do not show any other blocking reason, can be blocked in accordance with the random principle. In Customizing for the Logistics invoice verification, you can set the probability for the block. The indicator for the logistical payment block is entered in the header of the invoice document.
Dependencies
If you have set a manual payment block, and an invoice is blocked automatically due to differences in the invoice items, the system enters the manual payment block in the vendor line of the Accounting document.
